The Lycée
Français de New York
is honoring renowned French
couturier Jean Paul
Gaultier with the
Charles de Ferry de
Fontnouvelle Award for his
leadership in the arts at
its annual Gala this
Saturday, March
17th, 2012 at

This
year's theme, Les Années
Folles – Inspiring Minds,
Sharing Cultures, celebrates
Paris of the 1920s, a period
of extraordinary cultural
exchange between France and
the United States.

The
Gala is an annual highlight
of fundraising activity at
the Lycée. It brings
together the school's
international community,
welcoming dignitaries,
celebrities and artists to
celebrate the unique
cultural environment and
education the Lycée provides
its diverse student body.
Last year, the Gala raised
over $1.9 million directed
towards supporting the
school's educational and
cultural initiatives as well
as its generous scholarship
program.
